Christmas 2010 in Pleasanton

The long Pleasanton slide

Ready set go!

Easy stuff

Got wheels will travel

Walnut Grove School Playground is really nice.

Diggers but the green talker in the background is really spooky. You talk into it after spinning the dial then it parrots back some garbled stuff.

Watch the head!

Big sister helping

At the Oakland temple grounds to see the Christmas lights.

The cornflake wreath tradition

This guitar came from the Green Can Garbage Man, Noel when he made his rounds. That was such a surprise.

Budding pianist.

This is before the falls at the roller skating rink.

Relaxing a minute.

Just rolling along.

Not bad for the first time for the girls. Mommy never fell.

Christmas morning.

Daddy made everyone happy.

The gifts just keep coming.

The aunt came to visit.

At the Exploratorium in San Francisco. Lots of things to learn about.

Here is a mechanical bicycle. Push the buttons just right and it will go.

Or just turn the wheel by hand.

I got to ride unless I wanted to walk which was most of the time.

Dad gives instructions.

Making puffs of smoke.

Light has many colors.

This one snaps a shot of your shadow.

The exit view of us.
